Career Statement for applying Scholarship
Hi, over the couple weeks, I've realized there are some students who are academically smart in Basil surprisingly.
Therefore, I'd like to ask some questions regarding the career statement for applying for scholarship.
I'm currently thinking of writing a personal intro in the beginning. Then, talking about my goal upon graduating high school. Then, future.
If anyone wants to give me an idea/tips/advice, please comment below. And, feel free to message me sample career statement.
Also, in order to catch other people's attention, I'm thinking of putting my childhood in the beginning. Would it be a good idea?
Lastly, my current career goal is Doctor/Dentist (Canada, BC). Also, feel free to explain any other process regarding scholarship/bursary in your high school.
Thank you all,

There are actually many people on basil who are smart. I find that there are a higher percentage of smart people who are frequently on the internet than not.
Anyways, I have some experience with this stuff, granted they were all American scholarships, not Canadian ones, but I don't think that there'd be much of a difference. I've gotten multiple academic scholarships which total to $28,000 per year renewable for 4 years. My advice would to be careful in your writing to make it sound natural and not forced. Sound genuinely interested in what you're talking about, but don't be blatantly BSing. It's a tough balance to find. I never have had to do a career statement like what you're talking about so I'm not exactly sure what to include, but if it's appropriate, talk about the reason why you want to do that career. This is the only way that I'd talk about your childhood because it's the only way that I see your childhood being relevant to your career. Again, the main thing that I find important is sounding genuine.
